Voip Comparison

My laptop is slow to load web pages and sometimes they wont load at all despite 900kps connection.?

I have a laptop with a Intel Pro Wireless BG2200 built in and it connects to a Linksys W54G router, which uses a Belkin 4 Port VoIP ADSL router as a gateway. When I try and browse the web pages will often be slow to load or will suddenly become unavailable (just did it as I was trying to review this question and I had to start again). However when I use the company VPN from the same location and with the same hardware I don't have those problems. Also, the other desktops that connect wired or wirelessly to the same hardware do not have this problem. My feeling is that it is DNS related but I can't set a static DNS because I am always on the move and hook up to multiple access points around town.

  1. Maybe the DHCP provided (if you get your DNS from DHCP) DNS Servers are not responding in time. I had my ISP change the primary and secondary DNS servers and my connection when to crap. Through the VPN, you're probably using your company's DSN servers. Check to make sure your primary and secondary DSN server respond. In windows, open a command shell. Type "nslookup yahoo.com" and see if you get a response.
